GUILFORD COUNTY, N.C. — After a year-long investigation, deputies have arrested two parents in a child abuse case involving an infant, Sheriff Danny H. Rogers announced.
On January 23, 2024, Guilford County Sheriff’s Office (GCSO) deputies were called to a local hospital after reports of a possible child abuse case. When they arrived, hospital staff told them a 5-month-old baby had suffered physical injuries.
After months of investigating, authorities obtained arrest warrants in November 2024 for the child’s parents, 21-year-old Zowie Knight and 22-year-old Daniel Martin, charging them with Felony Child Abuse.
Deputies arrested the child’s father, Martin, on January 23, 2025, with help from the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office. On March 3, 2025, Guilford County deputies took Knight, the mother, into custody.
Officials in Guilford and Rowan counties said both parents bonded out of jail.
Because the victim is a juvenile, authorities are not releasing additional details about the case.
